Welcome to San Francisco Sketchfest 2018! Here's your front row seat, your backstage pass, and your all-access badge to one of the biggest comedy festivals in the country!

[Contains explicit content] Hop on the "L" and take a fast-moving, nostalgic tour through Chicago on this episode of Sounds Like America. You'll be guided along the way by some of the Third Coast's funniest comedians - with stops for deep dish, blues, improv, and much more. The comedy in this episode was recorded at live venues all around the country.

[Contains explicit content] This is Sounds Like America, a wild sound collage of America starring the people who've seen it all and tell it like it really is: comedians. In this episode, Milwaukee-born comic Jackie Kashian introduces us to that huge swath of territory that lies in between the country's most expensive real estate markets. Ah, the Midwest - land of cornfields, common sense, and questionable diets.

The Emmy award-winning former executive producer of The Daily Show and The Colbert Report has assembled a stellar lineup of men who have one thing in common: all have been dumped...and are willing to share their pain and the lessons learned.

[Contains explicit content] Outspoken advice columnist Dan Savage showcases the best true stories about sex and relationships from live storytelling shows across the country. Many episodes feature special guests (Rachel Bloom, Jen Kirkman, Michael Yo, Greg Behrendt, Jessi Klein, Joel Kim Booster, and more) who share their stories, songs, and thoughts on relationships. Dan provides insightful commentary…and occasionally, a story of his own.

From the moment he began writing his syndicated sex-advice column, "Savage Love", Dan Savage has never been shy about expressing his opinion on controversial topics - political or otherwise. In the height of his activism, he addresses issues ranging from parenting and the gay agenda to the Catholic Church and health care. Speaking to a broad range of subjects with brutal honesty and irreverent humor, American Savage is a pivotal piece that cements Dan Savage’s place as a provocative and insightful voice in American culture.

[Contains explicit content] The most hopeless of crushes are often the most powerful. On this episode of Hot Mic with Dan Savage we'll hear a studio story from Samm Levine, the actor whose breakout role was in the cult TV favorite Freaks and Geeks. Samm shares a story about his pre and post-fame crush on a girl with an intoxicating name. We'll also hear a RISK! live story from David Montgomery, who once nurtured a rather expensive crush on a rather unavailable man.

[Contains explicit content] Ghost stories aren't just for campfires and sleepovers anymore. They're also for those of us still doing the dating slog, especially those of us who think everything is going great with a new partner, when whoosh! They disappear like mist. On this episode of Hot Mic with Dan Savage, Nikki DaVaughn shares a very sexy ghost story from BedPost Confessions, and musical duo Reformed Whores honors us with a song.

[Contains explicit content] Coming out is a huge step - so much so that we honor it with National Coming Out Day. But what about all the small steps afterwards? In this episode, two gay people try to navigate their romantic lives after coming out, and learn that finding love isn't quite as easy as just walking into a gay bar. This episode features "Sunset at Noon" from Holly Lorka for the Soundtrack Series, and "How to Be" from R. Eric Thomas for RISK!

[Contains explicit content] Every romance begins differently, but for the ones that last, there's always a moment when you decide to commit — we call it your commit-moment. In this episode, two storytellers share the tale of their own commit-moments, and prove that real love can come from the strangest of places. This episode features "Wet Feet" by Emma Weisfeld for The Narrators, "How Nick's Mind Works" by Lesley Jones for Bawdy Storytelling, and an anonymous secret from BedPost Confessions.

[Contains explicit content] High school sucks for a lot of people, especially young queer kids trying to survive the blinding storm of pubescent hormones while getting bullied or beat up for things they’re just learning to like. Things like musical theater, or in Dan Bucatinsky's case, the leader of his high school's marching band. On this episode of Hot Mic with Dan Savage, guest Dan Bucatinsky talks with Dan Savage about his not-so-glorious days as an awkward, closeted clarinet player.

[Contains explicit content] Fantasy can be so powerful that you don't realize reality is headed in a totally different direction. In this special episode of Hot Mic with Dan Savage, comedian and actress Rachel Bloom chats with Dan about her CW musical comedy Crazy Ex-Girlfriend, where her character Rebecca Bunch takes fantasy a bit far (you'll also hear some snippets of songs from the show).

[Contains explicit content] Everyone loves a good creepy story, and this episode of Hot Mic with Dan Savage features two particularly great ones - including a creeper story with a twist by Janelle James from RISK!, and a studio story from Sean Patton about what happens when you become the creep. Plus, Dan has some advice for those who hang out with creepy people.

[Contains explicit content] Since this is a show about sex and relationships, we figured maybe in at least one episode we'd talk about the part that involves baby making. We'll also talk about what happens when you want a baby, but don't want to sex it into existence. Plus, a surprising revelation: babies eventually turn into teenagers. Get ready for two hilarious live stories about baby makery, curated by host Dan Savage.

[Contains explicit content] Comedian Jen Kirkman's mother had a sign in her kitchen that said "Kissin' don't last, Cookin' do." Hear how that sign and all it represented affected Jen's romantic life, in a funny and touching story she told on Don't Tell My Mother! in Los Angeles. Plus, Jen is our special guest in studio! She and Dan Savage talk about love, lust (particularly for that hot 1970's look), and what it's like to grow up horny in a religious household.

[Contains explicit content] Sometimes you have to escape the nest in order to learn how to flap your wings. In this episode, Margot Leitman escapes her parents' gaze—they'd rather focus on each other—to Puerto Rico, where a handsome man in a lavender shirt awaits her. Storyteller Mike O'Connell, on the other hand, completely fails to escape the nest. Plus, Dan tells the story of the time he tried to escape to San Francisco but, unfortunately, couldn't get off (the bus).

[Contains explicit content] As a tiny minority of America's population, most members of the LGBT community spend most of their time in mostly heterosexual spaces. But the "Gay Area" episode of Hot Mic with Dan Savage is...well, just what it sounds like. You'll hear a story from Don't Tell My Mother about what happened when straight comedian and actor Barry Rothbart got hired to film a promo video for a huge gay nudist colony.

[Contains explicit content] Love is patient, love is kind, love is giving up your rent controlled apartment, screaming alone on a beach, and everything in-between.

[Contains explicit content] Who doesn't love an unexpected wedding proposal? Let's be honest—especially one that careens suddenly off the rails? On this episode of Hot Mic we're talking about times the question gets popped and, surprise, not all goes swimmingly. Plus, Dan shares the deep satisfaction of telling your lover off in public.

[Contains explicit content] The saying, "Beauty is as beauty does" is misleading. It's supposed to mean that one's beauty is defined by their actions, not their appearance. But as anyone who's ever consumed any type of visual media knows, beautiful people are exalted — and most people in the public eye have to DO a lot to be beautiful. On this episode of Hot Mic with Dan Savage we'll hear how two public figures deal with the pressure to be pretty for the camera.
